Rocket-Bye Baby is available for pre-order now and will land on shelves everywhere January 8, 2019! Don’t you just love this cover? Wait until you see the interior with the orange and pink sunset and the dreamy outer-space landscape. Ziyue Chen’s illustrations are out of this world! Here’s a bit about the book:

When stars begin to twinkle in the night sky, it’s time for an outer-space lullaby. A perfect bedtime read to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the moon landing!

Rocket-bye, Baby, up to the moon. Nighttime is falling; sleep will come soon. We’ll climb in the spaceship and that’s where we’ll stay, snuggled up close as we’re carried away. . . .

Join a mother and her baby as they fly in their own little rocket through a star-filled night sky, past constellations and meteor showers, in this dreamy good-night book. A gentle rhyme and beautiful artwork of stars and planets and mother and child make this a perfect good-night book when the stars come out.
